Today we visited the Yukon Territorial government offices here in Whitehorse, the Territorial capital.  The building is about as big as you would expect for the seat of a territory with 37,000 residents:

We received a great tour of the Assembly chambers.  The Yukon Territorial Assembly has 19 members, 12 of which are from the majority party.  They meet for 60 days every spring and fall:

In the hall, there was a display about the ceremonial mace, without which proceedings cannot begin:

There was a 20+ pane stained glass mural depicting the history of the Yukon running the lenth of the building.  This is the beginning of the mural:

We walked a couple blocks to the SS Klondike, one of the sternwheelers used to carry gold from Dawson City to Whitehorse and supplies the other way:

Stacks of simulated supplies:

The SS Klondike had dining and lodging for 24 first-class passengers:

The Yukon rivers flows on by at quite a clip:

M may have lost his wallet:

Even Whitehorse has its hoodlums:

Heading North, there were several places to walk down to the Yukon River:

There were butterflies a plenty:

After a few hours driving, we reached the junction with the Dempster Highway, and drove towards Tombstone Territorial Park:

Good thing we filled up on gas at the junction:

After an hour or so of driving the Dempster Highway, we reached a streamside pullout to camp in over Shabbos.  Sunset here is at 12:46AM.  Here are views of our site at around 11:45PM:

North on the Dempster:

Good Shabbos from Tombstone Territorial Park, Yukon Territory!  See the trip map for driving details and current location.
